Last weekend was so beautiful – we stopped at Revere Beach to enjoy some time in the sun.

You know that time of the morning when you’re 5 minutes away from leaving the house, and you’re struggling to get out with keys, backpacks, jackets, lunches, snacks, forms, checks, library books, clean clothes, shoes, combed hair, brushed teeth, and whatever you need for the work day? Well, Little Miss Norah recently chose Crunch Time to snack on a container of marinara sauce and ended up wearing it and requiring a complete change of clothes. Our Crunch Time is around 7:40 a.m. Don’t call me then. 🙂

Earlier this evening I realized that today is the deadline for me to take an online class and test on the FCPA. It seemed a little dry and boring but I thought it was just me. About halfway through, Adlani started watching it with me and about 3 minutes later I realized that he had passed out on my leg. I have never ever seen him fall asleep while watching TV. I guess it wasn’t just me. The next time I have a hard time getting him to bed I’ll just log into Ingersoll Rand University!!

I made a deal with Aliya and her reward was to go to the Melting Pot with Grandma Ginny, Grampa B, and me. When I made the reservation, the guy asked me if we were celebrating a special occasion. I said, “We’re celebrating my 6-year-old sleeping in her own bed for a week. Do you have a song for that?” Our waiter didn’t seem like the singing type, but the food was delicious!
